Now & Then: The Appalachian Magazine, Volume 20, Issue 01, published in 2003. The theme of this issue is Youth of Appalachia. This issue focuses on the experiences, opportunities, and identities of young people in Appalachia. Articles highlight programs that expand educational and creative pathways for Appalachian youth, including college-access initiatives and documentary filmmaking through Appalshop, while also exploring the curiosity, resilience, and imagination that shape life in the mountains. Essays reflect on childhood, mentorship, cultural identity, and the enduring connection many young Appalachians feel to their land and heritage. Together with fiction, poetry, and reviews, the issue portrays Appalachian youth as thoughtful participants in their communities whose stories reveal both the challenges and possibilities of growing up in the region.
